Part of the V-ATPaseB gene of Frankliniella occidentalis to synthesize dsRNA for RNAi
This is a section of V-ATPaseB gene of Frankliniella occidentalis to synthesize dsRNA for RNAi. To product dsRNA this sequence inserted in L4440 plasmid, and transformed into HT115(DE3).

purpose

vATPase-B is a gene that encodes a protein that is part of a subunit of vATPase, a type of ATP-dependent proton pump that regulates the pH of various cell organelles. Since this gene is essential for thrips, knockdown of vATPase-B results in the death of the thrips Frankliniella occidentalis.[1]

cloning

This part was inserted in L4440. The L4440 has two t7 promoters, and this ​parts are transcribed from both sides.

production and purification methods

Fig1. aaaaaaa


We product ds RNA and purify this [2].
The 1L LB culture was started at 37C and IPTG (final 0.2mM) was added when OD exceeded 0.4 to induce RNA production for 4 hours.
E. coli was disrupted and precipitated with NaCl, and RNA contained in the supernatant was purificated by phenol-chloroform treatment.

Electrophoresis in acrylamide gel was performed to confirm whether the target RNA was produced.

We could confirm RNA production.
